mass transport in plants experiments

Question 1

what is the first step of the ringing experiment

Answer 1

a ring of bark along the phloem are removed from the tree trunk

Question 2

what is the second step of the tracing experiment

Answer 2

this is absorbed during photosynthesis to produce sugars,which are also radioactively labelled

Question 3

what is the third step of the tracing experiment

Answer 3

samples were then cut and placed on x-ray film,which detects radio active material

Question 4

what is the fourth step of the tracing experiment

Answer 4

the section containing the radioactively-labelled sugars was detected,highlighting where the phloem was located

Question 5

what is the first step of the tracing experiment

Answer 5

plants provided with radioactively-labelled co2

Question 6

what is the second step of the ringing experiment

Answer 6

trunk swells above removed ring,and the liquid was formed to contain sugars

Question 7

what is the third step of the ringing experiment

Answer 7

showed that it was the phloem that transports sugars as they cant be transported due to the removal of the phloem
